Hi guys, I'm a new user. I'm running 4.2 on an i3 Haswell. There are a few questions I was hoping you could help with.
1. How do you decrease the boot time? On my machine with an ssd, it takes more than 20 seconds from the time I press the on button to the time I'm presented with the login prompt. That's significantly worse than Windows or Debian, which is surprising since Dragonfly is so much smaller and more minimal. I notice two things: A. we are asked to press '1' to boot the standard OS, and B. the screen then fills up with the output of dmesg, i.e what drivers it can find and so forth. Is there any way to configure the OS so that it does A automatically? And any way to speed up B? 2. To get to my MATE desktop, I currently enter 'startx' at the command prompt. When I log out (within MATE), the screen goes black and nothing happens. How do I configure the machine so that A. it presents me with a graphical login screen at boot, not a command line and B. it allows me to log out and switch users from within MATE? Sorry if these are dumb questions. I looked through the handbook and the man pages and couldn't find the answers. Thanks in advance for any help!
